Moaaaaaaar pics

Slowly getting Chase's pics uploaded. Here's a couple of Peggy from thursday: I tell you, taking those shoulder pads out made a huge difference. My neck doesn't look so short now. Chase & I found an abandoned nook of the Hilton Saturday morning for the Doctor Who photoshoot and got some Donna photos... And then I MET A DOG DRESSED LIKE THE DOCTOR Group shot: And here's some of Chase's ...

Dragoncon 2015: Costume recap

In (sort-of) order of wearing! 1. Peggy Carter I did some updates to Peggy - I took it up a bit through the waist and removed the shoulder pads, and fixed up the wig. It made a HUGE difference! The jacket fit much better and the wig looked way better, too. I just wish I could have had time to take up the sleeves - they are still huge - but ...

Dragon Con

We're back! Time to recap... Wednesday We got up bright and early and were actually on the road at the time we wanted to be. I played a lot of tsumtsum (it's been a while since I played). Once we got to Atlanta we got lunch (Takorea), then went and checked in and unloaded. And then off to ikea! Yay! We bought a new shelf unit for the guest room/...

Other updates

Because I forgot in the last post. Also I finally added a tag for the pink dress - it's "Pink dream dress" because last year I dreamed about this dress and it's why I wanted to make it. I haven't been tagging the posts because I didn't know what to call it til now! And wait... hold on... Joann Fabrics has a 1 yd and 3/4 and they're holding it for me ...

Whatever

I have been struggling for two months to come up with 12 costumes I want to take to Dragoncon. I've been having a hard time whittling down the list to make it be 12. Today I decide to f--- it. I'm taking all of them. With this possibly being our last Dragoncon, why should I limit myself? I may not wear all of them, but they'll all come with me and have ...

Dreams

Over the weekend, I had a weird mash-up dream where we were at Disney World and then at Dragon Con but neither place was the ACTUAL place. (Most of my Dragon Con dreams take place in places that are not the Dragon Con hotels. But in my head it's Dragon Con. It's often strange hotels/convention centers/mall mash-ups I've never been to.) It started out with going through some ...

Dragoncon pictures I stole from other people

I'm a nasty little thief, stealing pictures from other people. I love this shot of my Peggy with the USO Girls from Kaydee: Although it makes me think my jacket is a little big? I need to adjust the belt up higher and it's already wrinkling at that lower point. Hm. Anne onstage, from Sean Peck: Two gorgeous shots of my Johanna, the first from Jimmy Burns and the second ...

Dcon 2014: Anne Boleyn

Ok, I think this is the last costume wrap-up post I need to do. Due to the crowds I only got to wear Anne once. I probably would have braved it again if I didn't already have proof that someone stepping on my skirt could rip it - Chase accidently stepped on the side of it as we were heading back to the room and pulled the skirt from the ...

5 Days After: The costume you most squeed over from this year

5 Days After: The costume you most squeed over from this year The Olafs, Dreamcatcher and Figment, Mean Girls, Celebrity Jeopardy... off the top of my head. I'm sure there's more I'm not thinking of. And I'm being lazy and not posting pics. *falls back asleep*
